I don't know how Adam got so lucky. Today he changed only his second poopy diaper; it didn't go so well... The first time he put Mason directly into the bathtub; this time occurred while camping in Holland, so Mason got the hose. I only heard about it when I got home. I was surprised that it went down the way it did because David was with them and he at least knows how it should be done. I guess he decided to sit back and let Adam figure it out on his own, which is probably good for him.
Tonight was dirt bike night at the fair. Mason was pretty excited about that. When he hopped out of the truck he went running and exclaiming "two mum-mums!". For Mason, anything over one is two, whether it be two or 15.
Between Mason and I, we ate almost the whole bag of cotton candy. That kid loves that stuff as much as I do. Mason is very much like his dad but there are a few things we share in common and one is cotton candy, the other, we hate the window down in the truck. This one cracks me up because Adam hates it when I ask him to roll my window up, but he can't say no to his boy!
Yesterday there were the tiniest of waves but daddy gets bored at the beach so he brought along a surfboard. Mason really wasn't too thrilled about water in his face but the cold water doesn't even phase him, so in the end it worked out and the two had some fun catching waves. I loved seeing them do this together. I think it's so cute!

Home from CO and tired!

Wow, has it really been 5 months since my last post? So much for my new resolution...
We just got home from Colorado and it feels soo good to sleep in my own bed! It was a loooong drive. Mason did really well (considering). I believe we drove over 3,000 miles and purchased 376 gallons of diesel fuel at approx $3.60/gallon which we were pleased with, as it came down just in time for the trip.
We had a safe trip with only minor mishaps. Two blowouts on the rzr slowed us down, but not for long. Mason loved all the rides in the rzr and the scenery was breath taking... Literally, we reached over 12,000 ft above sea level at least once a day on our drives through the mountain. It's hard to breath that high up. We enjoyed white water rafting, (level 4) it was good for a small rush. We split up into two teams so we could all go and someone could watch the kids.
Our friends from college, Steve and Sarah joined us for a couple of days the second week. I got some cute pictures of Mason and Brielle running around in their diapers that I'll embarrass them with when they both get older.
